[QUOTE="slsh, post: 37575, member: 8"] Kjs, May be different in Wisc, but in our district "summer school" is a different program than Extended School Year (ESY). ESY *is* a Special Education service and has absolutely zip to do with- scores. "Summer school" here is a remedial program open to all students. If a student shows regression over breaks, ESY is an appropriate service. Regression doesn't just mean academically - can be socially, emotionally, behaviorally, or with- motor function or speech. There was a recent post in sped 101 about ESY. Have you been able to locate an advocate to help you with- your SD? It really sounds like you need someone there in person to help get services for difficult child. SDs don't tend to be proactive but with- the emphasis on "testing" scores now, I'd point out to SD that while difficult child may be scoring extremely high right now, if his current school performance, caused by *behaviors*, continues it will only be a matter of time before those all imporant test scores start plummeting.
